Updating to v3.0

Updating to v3.0-alpha

Updating to v2.6

-= Re-coding MediaRenderer =-

- Hardware Frames (NV12/P010 Semi-Planar): Direct Convert to RGB with PixelShaders (No more VideoProcessorBlt)
- Software Frames (8-bit YUV Planar/Packed): PixelShaders support for most of them (Planar/Packed)
- Rest Frames (RGB & YUV > 8-bit): Still using fallback to "heavy" SwsScale (however improvements also here with direct copy)
- ColorSpace / ColorRange support (BT601/BT709 Full/Limited)
- Better multi-threading SwapChain implementation and more BackBuffers in use
- Audio auto re-sync in case of de-sync
- Fixing an issue while ffmpeg fails to seek on keyframe we skip until it finds one (was showing broken frames)
- Fixing an issue with Audio noise during pause/play
- Updating Libraries

Updating to v2.5.3

- Finalizing Youtube-dl properly including all the required headers/cookies/user-agent/referrer etc. (TODO: black/white lists for codecs)
- Audio/Video stream selection on pop-up menu. Change resolution, will try to add best audio match automatically (+Youtube-dl)
- Video stream best match based on screen resolution (Youtube-dl)
- Audio stream best match based on Language priorities (in case of multi audio streams with different languages)
- Audio volume affects directly Master (to achieve constant changes, will be reviewed)
- Adding video title instead of url for web in recent history and OSD
- MediaBuffer: Ensures that it has enough video & audio frames before playing (no audio silence on start / minqueuesize currently not required by default and set to 1)
- Fixing issues with seeking, timestamps & invalid packets
- Fixing a crashing issue when the GPU does not support codec decoding
- Fixing a crashing issue on opening
- Overall more smooth playback (support for higher fps) and better audio sync

Updating to v2.5.2

- Saving Subs delay in History seperately for each subtitle
- Fixing subs to open properly from history and after seek abort (reopening), including the proper delay
- Fixing an issue with youtube urls (for channels/lists, not supported currently will play single video) which was crashing the app

Finalizing new Seek also for network (slow) streams

Updating to v2.5

-= Re-design Flyleaf's Core =-

NOTES
 - Subtitles non-Unicode : Converting will be done based on system default (Language Settings -> Administrative -> System locale) - (Opensubtitles default convert to UTF-8 failed as well)
 - File IO Access  : Ensure that Flyleaf will have access on the folder that you will place it (or run as administrator)
 - Firewall    : It is recommended to add an exception for Flyleaf to ensure proper streaming (especially for torrent streaming)

Additions / Enhancements
 - Re-design of Flyleaf's core to achieve better performance and lower resources
 - Seperating Demux with Decode (useful for buffering especially on network streams)
 - Using the same direct3D 11 device both for rendering & decoding (better performance as no extra shared copy is required)
 - Generalize AVIO context to support any Stream type (currently used for Torrent streaming)
 - Better thread handling without abort/start by using reset events (better performance)
 - Making Seek process even more efficient and faster for better user experience
 - Better audio handling by spoting NAudio's issue with threading & better volume / mute control (by handling also app session's device)
 - Adding Subtitles outline and performing more efficient syncing
 - Adding Exit & Media Info on right click pop-up menu
 - Updating dependency libraries (BitSwarm/APF/Youtube-dl)

Issues
 - FFmpeg's seek abort would cause scanning the whole file (on matroska)
 - No more green screens and thread sleeps to avoid them by using the same direct3D 11 device for decoding & rendering
 - Screamer would not scream last video frame
 - Rendering on non-fullscreen was not accurate (aspect ratio issue)
 - Temporarly disabling rendering to boot faster (during settings loading)

Updating to v2.4.1

- Updating Plug-ins/Libraries (FFmpeg/APF/BitSwarm/Youtube-dl)
- Adding outline/border subtitles (fixing invisibility while background frame has same color)
- Fixing subtitle issues (faster delay adjustment/adding twice in list the embedded subs on torrent streaming)

Updating to v2.4

NOTES
- Subtitles non-Unicode : Converting will be done based on system default (Language Settings -> Administrative -> System locale) - (Opensubtitles default convert to UTF-8 failed as well)
- File IO Access  : Ensure that Flyleaf will have access on the folder that you will place it (or run as administrator)
- Firewall    : It is recommended to add an exception for Flyleaf to ensure proper streaming (especially for torrent streaming)

Additions

- History/Recent : Adding 'Recent' on right click floating menu for fast resume on previously watched videos (It will continue playing with the same settings as it was before)
- Organized Folders : Fixing temporary files/folders etc and exposing folders in settings for customization

Enhancements
- Audio  : Changing by default to 32-bit float for better quality
- Audio  : Better resample implementation ready to support filters & exposed as settings for user customization (bits, channels/layout, rate)
- DirectX : Compatibility with older Windows versions
- Libraries : Updating BitSwarm, FFmpeg, Youtube-DL, misc versions
- Subtitles : Better sorting and selection (giving match priority to moviehash instead of rating)
